Explain what is meant by this phrase. This means that once the threshold is met‚ an action potential occurs. If the stimulus is too small an action potential does not occur. An action potential is usually initiated in an axon at or near what? The axon hillock‚ the initial segment‚ and the trigger zone. The adequate stimuli

Polarization of the neuron’s membrane: cell membrane is surrounded by neurons as other cell has a membrane. If a nerve cell is not stimulated‚ the membrane is known to be polarized. For a neuron to be polarized‚ it is by maintaining excess of sodium ions on the outside of the cell and excess potassium ions on the inner part of the cell. A volume of sodium ions and potassium ions usually leaks through its channel but the sodium ions and potassium ions pumps on the membrane that restores the (k+) back

junction. Neuron (from the brain or spinal cord) will passed action potential through axon of motor neuron to an axon terminal. Sodium ion (Na+) and calcium ion (K+) are higher concentration outside than from the inside of the muscle and neuron. Na+ and K+ want to go inside but blocked by these channels (voltage gated calcium channels and ligand gated cation channels). The negative charge turn to positive charge after the action potential is at the terminal. This causes the calcium voltage gated channel

A. Avril Crayfish Lab Report November 9‚ 2012 Dr. Marvin Results: Figure 1. Firing Rate of Tonic Receptor in Response to Stretch. The correlation between Firing Rate and Stretch of the slow adapting crayfish receptor for four different sets of data is represented in this figure. The recordings are taken at stretches of 2‚ 4‚ 6‚ 8‚ and 10 mm of the crayfish tail. The best fit lines for the different sets of data are as follows: Ali and Emily- Linear best fit line‚ Dave and Laura- Exponential

ANATOMY 2 LAB 1 – RECEPTORS Questions: 1. How is the distance between receptors related to sensitivity of a stimulus? * The greater the distance between receptors and stimulus the lesser sensitive are the stimulus. The smaller area‚ the more sensitive. 2. What does the two-point discrimination test measure? * It measures the smallest distance at which two points of contact can be felt or measures areas that are more sensitive and has more motor interactions. 3. What areas of

Haymakers Resting is an oil painting by Camille Pissarro created in 1891. It was painted on a Canvas 25 3/4 x 32in large. The painting‚ as most of Pissarro’s works‚ is an impressionist piece with a rural theme. The technique used to create the painting is called pointillism‚ a common tool of impressionist. The painting depicts three farm women lying in loose hay. The women are plainly dressed‚ obviously workers who are either taking a breaking or coming to a stop for the day. The women wear plain
